McCurley, Orsinger Partners Declared ‘Super Lawyers’

(Dallas) Every partner at the Dallas-based family law firm McCurley, Orsinger, McCurley & Nelson is included in a recently published list of Texas “Super Lawyers.” Additionally, name partners Mike McCurley and Richard Orsinger were both named to the Top 100 in Texas and Top 100 in D/FW lists, and name partner Mary Johanna McCurley was named one of the Top 50 Women Lawyers in the state.

The list, published in the November issue of Texas Monthly, was compiled by Law & Politics Media, the publishers of Law & Politics Magazine. The complete list is at www.superlawyers.com.

In addition to Mike McCurley, Orsinger, and Mary Johanna McCurley, name partner Keith Nelson and partner Scott Downing were included on the “Super Lawyer” list. They were all recognized for their work in the field of family law.

“I like to think that one of the reasons we’re so recognized in this field is that we focus on one thing and one thing only: family law,” says Mike McCurley. “Most importantly, we don’t treat our clients like Fortune 500 companies. They’re individuals, with children and memories and heartache. And we approach every case with sensitivity to those issues.”

In addition to Texas Super Lawyers, Mike McCurley, one of the most prominent lawyers in the country, is consistently included in just about every “best” list imaginable, from Texas Lawyer’s elite “Go-To-Guide”, where McCurley was named the best family lawyer in Texas to the prestigious Town & Country Magazine.

The Texas Academy of Family Law Specialists has awarded both McCurley and Orsinger the Sam Emison Award (in 2001 and 2003, respectively), which recognizes an individual who has made significant contributions to the practice of family law.

Also, Texas Lawyer named Orsinger one of the state’s five best family lawyers, and Mary Jo McCurley was selected by her peers to chair the State Bar of Texas’ Family Law Section. Mike McCurley and Orsinger have been listed in Best Lawyers in America for many years.

Every single McCurley, Orsinger partner is Board Certified in Family Law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization, and they are regular instructors at family law-related Continuing Legal Education seminars.

As if to complement the firm’s trial expertise, Orsinger is one of the best-known appellate lawyers in the state (he is also Board Certified in Civil Appellate Law), having written McDonald’s treatise on Texas Appellate Procedure and having helped to write and grade the civil appellate specialization exam for years.
